Smith completed, Matusow raised, and Katchalov, Velador, and Smith call. Matusow led out on fourth, Katchalov called, Velador raised, and Smith folded. Matusow put in a third bet, moving all in, Katchalov called, and Velador raised. Katchalov called.
Katchalov check-called on sixth, then check-folded on seventh. Velador showed two pair, Matusow turned over his first two down cards (
) and needed to pair up to survive. He found a double when he turned over the 
and circled around the table, pumping his fist in excitement.
